This work proposes a procedure to estimate the measurement uncertainty for the quantification of cefazolin by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and microbiological assay (bioassay). HPLC method was performed according to United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and bioassay according to Brazilian Pharmacopeia (FB). The quantification of cefazolin by high-performance liquid chromatography wa...

background: bisphenol-a is categorized as a toxic and refractory organic matter. ultrasonic process considered as an effective method for degradation of refractory organic matters in the environment which is achieved by the production of fine bubbles through cavitation process. this study is conducted for assessment of the toxicity of effluents containing bisphenol-a which was treated by ultras...

PubChem's BioAssay database (http://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) is a public repository for archiving biological tests of small molecules generated through high-throughput screening experiments, medicinal chemistry studies, chemical biology research and drug discovery programs. In addition, the BioAssay database contains data from high-throughput RNA interference screening aimed at identifying cri...

objective: this research was carried out as a greenhouse experiment in the form of a completely randomized factorial design (crd) in three-run sequences. the research aimed at investigating the impacts of nicosulfuron (cruz) and rimsulfuran (titus) residues on the growth of wheat in two soil types which differed in their levels of organic compounds and salinity. methods: treatment of the experi...

this study was conducted to investigate commercial formulations of insecticides against western flower thrips, frankliniella occidentalis (pergande).the insects were collected from commercial greenhouses of cucumber in varamin, iran. the tested insecticides were diazinon (ec 60%), cypermethrin (ec 40%), fipronil (ec 2.5%), imidacloprid (sc 35%) and a botanical insecticide oxymatrine (kingbo, as...

Acanthamoeba is an opportunistic protozoan that is widely distributed in the environment and is well recognized to produce serious human infections, including a blinding keratitis and a fatal encephalitis. This review presents our current understanding of the burden of Acanthamoeba infections on human health, their pathogenesis and pathophysiology, and molecular mechanisms associated with the d...

the population response of heliothis armigera larvae to nuclear polyhedrosis virus (npv) was investigated. the virus was introduced by permitting the larvae to feed on lettuce leaves. median lethal doses (ld50) were determined. the estimated ld50 values for the first, second, third, early, and late fourth larval instars were 5, 141, 1226, 5168 and 24553 polyhedra per larva respectively. in ...

Introduction: Bioassay is necessary for assessment of pollution. Because physical and chemical taste are not enough for assessment of potential effects on water ecosystem. Bioassay tests have alot of scientific value inanition doing of them is easy and need less time, also need less space, laboratory equipment’s and expenditure. Therefor such tests have found special attention in water pollutio...
